The 2001–02 season was Tottenham Hotspur's 10th season in the FA Premier League and 24th successive season in the top division of the English football league system. The club also participated in the FA Cup and the Football League Cup.
Season summary Glenn Hoddle's return to White Hart Lane as manager was seen by many as the revival of Tottenham after many seasons of mediocrity. Spurs reached the Worthington Cup final with Spurs fans hopeful that Hoddle's comeback would result in instant success. However Blackburn Rovers won 2–1, and Tottenham's silverware bid was over. Unremarkable Premiership form ended their UEFA Cup hopes, and they had to settle for ninth place in the final table.
